The bloom is off the rose - BillG

| No Comments

Great article about BillG and his life at Microsoft, Melinda and the world.
Read the whole thing - from Daniel Greenfield:

THE LOVE SONG OF BILL AND MELINDA
After Romeo and Juliet, Antony and Cleopatra, and Pepé Le Pew and Penelope, there were Bill and Melinda. The Microsoft technocrat and his spouse were a love story for the ages.

In 1993, Bill proposed to Melinda: an executive at his company. In 1994, they were married. In 1995, Melinda debuted Microsoft Bob. Microsoft Bob treated computer users like idiots who were too stupid to be allowed to use their computers without a lot of handholding.

Condescending handholding was also what the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation offered the world as one of the industry’s most notoriously miserable human beings decided to become a philanthropist and save the world from all the people who weren’t running it properly.

A bit more:

Forget CEO of Microsoft, Bill would use his vast wealth to become the CEO of the world.

Brutal - just read the whole thing.
